Zach Miller On Gruesome Leg Injury: Amputation Was "Very Real" Possibility
Chicago Bears tight end Zach Miller returned to the team facility today for the first time since the brutal knee injury he suffered eight weeks ago.

Marlins Continue Begging Other Teams To Rob Their Clubhouse
Time for some wholly unsurprising news! The Marlins front office’s brazen salary dump is continuing apace.

Here's The Only Hot Stove Glossary You'll Ever Need
Today marks the first full day of baseball’s Winter Meetings, that wonderful annual gathering in which baseball executives text each other trade proposals in closer physical proximity to one another than is usually the case while baseball writers repeatedly get drunk at the same hotel bar.

Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke Is Mad Because <i>Outside Magazine</i> Pointed Out He's A Fly Fishing Novice
One of the stupidest plans that the extremely stupid Trump administration is currently carrying out is a dramatic shrinking of Bears Ears National Monument in Utah. Trump recently announced that he would cut the size of Bears Ears by 85 percent and halved the size of the Grand Staircase-Escalante Na...
Giancarlo Stanton Acknowledges That The Marlins Are A Clown Show
Giancarlo Stanton was officially introduced as the newest member of the New York Yankees today, and he didn’t bother feigning any reverence for the team he spent the first eight years of his career with. Under normal circumstances, that might be seen as callous, or just poor form. But Stanton has ju...

Golf No Longer Wants To Hear From Snitches
One of the worst things about professional golf is that tournaments have long had the potential to be completely derailed by armchair rules officials. Such was the case earlier this year when a TV viewer emailed the LPGA’s fan feedback address to tattle on Lexi Thompson for misplacing her ball by an...
Carson Wentz Tore His ACL And The Eagles Have To Use Nick Foles, Again
Eagles QB Carson Wentz had to leave Sunday’s game with a knee injury, and the citizens of Philadelphia waited with bated breath and clenched buttholes for any updates, hopefully not involving any three-letter medical abbreviations. But the news today wasn’t good: Wentz is done for the year....
Derek Jeter Won't Even Show His Face
Over the weekend, the Miami Marlins sent Giancarlo Stanton to the Yankees for a package of players that is honestly not even worth mentioning here. The transaction that took place was made in such profoundly bad faith that “trade” seems too kind a word to attach to it. This was nothing more than the...
Report: Someone Threw A Pint Of Milk At Jose Mourinho During City-United Dust-Up
Manchester City beat Manchester United 2-1 at Old Trafford yesterday, and apparently, as City were celebrating after the game in the visitors’ locker room, United manager Jose Mourinho took exception to some of the noise—which the visitors then took exception to in hilarious, milky fashion....
It's Teddy Bear Toss Season
The best promotion in hockey—maybe in sports—is back for the holiday season, and nobody does the Teddy Bear Toss quite like the WHL’s Calgary Hitmen.

Lomachenko-Rigondeaux, High-Tech Dreams And Mechanical Reality
NEW YORK — On Saturday evening, midtown Manhattan was afflicted by plagues. A snowstorm had turned the crosswalks into slushy lagoons.

The Indiana Pacers Are Extremely Fun
Quietly, the Indiana Pacers are one of the real powerhouse offensive teams in the NBA this season. It’s weird, right? Look at the NBA’s top eight in offensive rating, and you see some usual suspects: the Warriors, the Rockets, the Cavs, the Raptors, the Timberwolves, the Nuggets—all teams with star-...

Quinton Jefferson Restrained From Fighting Bad Jags Fan
Seahawks tempers were running hot when their loss to the Jaguars was all but over, and a dust-up with the Jags in victory formation led to an unsportsmanlike conduct ejection for Seattle’s Quinton Jefferson. As Jefferson left the field, however, the situation deteriorated further, and some idiot in ...

Carson Wentz Out For Day With Knee Injury [UPDATE]
The Rams and Eagles, two of the best teams in the NFC, have been trading leads all afternoon, but if Philadelphia is going to pull out a win in L.A., they’re going to have to do it without stud QB Carson Wentz. Wentz is officially out for the rest of the day with a left knee injury, which was appare...
